US Army Hudson Crank Duster mystery thing
Hello All,
Is there someone who can tell me what this is? Seems to be a piece of American engineering of which there is no European equivalent. At least, I have never seen a look-alike. Ebay item 150222554762. http://cgi.ebay.com/US-ARMY-CRANK-DU...QQcmdZViewItem Best regards, Marco

It looks like it would be an insecticide duster to get at the creepy crawlies in hard to get places.

Heres a photo of an Australian soldier in Lae, Papua New Guinea using what looks to be a Hudson Duster. These units were used for the control of malaria. You can see his right hand cranking the handle and the dischard tube end piece has been removed.
